Pablo Picasso and Henri-Georges Clouzot during filming of "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.

Pablo Picasso sits in profile on a wooden crate during the filming of "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955. Dressed in a tank top and shorts, he gestures with a cigarette towards two of his abstract portraits. Behind him, director Henri-Georges Clouzot looks on attentively. Strong side lighting casts deep shadows across the wooden floor, creating a stark, intimate atmosphere focused on the artist, the director, and the work.
